Venice, Italy – Most of us know Venice to be home to world famous canals, but explore just beyond the waterways and the best way to get around may just be on wheels. Imagine exchanging the waterway for country backroads, or supplementing the songs of your gondolier with an expert narrative on Northeast Italy. Can you bike in Venice? Technically no, but you may be as surprised as one of our team members to learn that if you step just outside of the historic city center, a two-wheeled adventure is a perfect (and legal) way to take in the Italian countryside. With Venetouring – Venice Bike Experience, you’re granted access to a network of fourteen businesses, such as bike-friendly hotels, professional bike guides, villa rentals, and transportation vendors guaranteed to work together to give you the full Venetian experience.
When exploring with Venetouring, nothing is off limits. Travelers are given a wide range of tour options, from simply viewing Venice at sunset to visiting castles and abbeys dating back to ancient Roman times. Venetouring’s Vespa tours take you for a local lunch before heading into some of the hidden hills of the Italian countryside, only to finish at some of its famous wine cellars that boast a spectacular view.
For some, a trip to Venice may not be complete without a water ride… and in that case, Venetouring works with other transportation services so your tour can incorporate water taxis, historical boat tours, shuttles, and trains into your Venician experience. Venetouring will also help you curate your own holiday itinerary and supply you with everything you need. Travelers can opt for a professional guide to lead them into the unknown, or travel by yourself – they’ll provide you with a bike, helmet, luggage bags, assistance kit, vouchers, and 24-hour support from their office.
Venetouring covers just about everything when it comes to traveling throughout Northeast Italy, no matter the season (check out the video above of cyclists braving an Italian tundra!). They are more than just seeing the views. They are all about enriching the experience, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Visit Cals-List and the Venetouring website here. The Italian countryside awaits!
Happy travels!
